Psychiatrists in San Fernando, CA

My appointment was originally set for 11AM, I was late to my appointmnent by 17 minutes to be detailed. Typically I am not late, but at rate occasions I am late give or take 5 minutes but no matter how late I was I have always been treated the same with respect. Being 17 minutes late, I walked into Dr Yacoub's , Ehab office no more than 5 minutes after arrival. My current condition has been something I struggled with my entire life since I was at a much young age. I can tell anyone with confidents that assuming the account of doctors I saw was 8 total for the specific concern that Dr Ehab Yacoub is the only doctor that woul listen to me, try to exolain thing to me and make me walk out of the appointment with knowledge and not a single thought of question. I would recommend …read more

Made appointment for my daughter, He opened up another time period for us at 8Am on a Saturday because the time slot we requested was taken, pretty much straight forward, took the time to explain and listen to concerns and made us both feel at ease with his prognosis! He has a very nice home office, and you can tell that he is a Dr with much experience that cares about the progression of his patients!!! I will update this review as time moves on!! …read more

It was a good initial session. Looking forward to the next. …read more

Means well and it is clear he is knowledgeable at his craft but his is way way way to old to still be doing this. He's essentiall just like any other scenile old man, but happens to somehow still retain his medical license. Good for him for workng hard till the day he does, but certianly wouldn't reccomend him to anyone truly needing help. …read more

Dr Gundersen seems to be a caring doctor who is responsive to a patients needs and preferences. When interacting with previous physicians in this field I have been routinely encouraged to re-try medications that I have had a dangerous reaction too. Dr Gundersen took my concerns into consideration when choosing medications to try and due to that we were able to find a great balance of benefit/side-effect. That being said, this office, it's policies and behavior towards patients is at best unacceptable and at worst predatory. From a massive fee for being more than a few minutes late to check-in (required >10 minutes prior to appointment start time) for your appointment, to cancellations/rescheduling without apology or explanation (or notification I might add), to a rather large fee they charge you if you'd like have your prescriptions refilled - a full 5 second process. Bizarre, hostile, and unethical are all words I'd use to describe my interactions with the office staff. These people are actually the worst and I will not be returning to their office, despite my good experience with the Dr himself. …read more

Great overall experience! …read more

She is a very nice woman. Very skilled. But I thought her ideas a bit archaic an behind the times for me. I am progressive, feminist and independent. Her basic beliefs were out of sync with my own. …read more

Dr. Holly Schwartz was incredibly kind and attentive. She helped me identify problems I’ve been having and wanted to help me find the right solution for me. I’m so grateful to her. The office was beautiful and inviting, there was no wait time, and I felt like I was in good hands. She discussed treatment and medication options with me and made sure I was aware and comfortable with any effects or drawbacks. Very happy to have made my appointment. …read more

The office is well organized, caring and efficient. The space is a little tight but the office space for your appointment is not so all the claustrophobics should be fine. Overall you are cared for in a patient manner. …read more

I saw Dr. Suaya for the first time today, and the experience was wonderful. I was diagnosed with ADHD nine years ago, and I was in need of a psychiatrist to help me maintain my medication. I first spoke to Dr. Suaya briefly by phone on the morning of my appointment and, as I explained to her that I was presently uninsured, she kindly offered me a generous cash rate to accommodate my lack of insurance, which I appreciated very much. I unfortunately arrived at my appointment 15 minutes late, but Dr. Suaya and her staff were very understanding. I was seen promptly and treated by the doctor and her staff with great kindness, professionalism, and respect. Intake paperwork and billing was quick and seamless. My session with Dr. Suaya was incredibly helpful. I received an electronic prescription for the ADHD medication that I needed, but not only that: in addition, Dr. Suaya spent time with me, heard my experiences, and provided me with useful, practical information regarding the management of my condition. She gave me helpful advice as to how to best control my symptoms and manage the dosing of my medication so as to ensure the optimal balance between preserving my general health and the taking of my medication. I found Dr. Suaya to be wonderful, kind, and genuinely caring. I look forward to seeing her again, and I would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a professional and caring psychiatrist on the Westside. …read more
